Stuck With Fred

Hilly wants a friend, needs a friend, but the best she can do is Fred… thirty years older, irascible in the extreme, in poor health and a fellow recovering alcoholic. He’s not an easy friend. But neither is she. When his health takes a turn for the worst and his brother shows up to run interference, she finds out just how much of a friend he is.

Stuck With Fred

    I just saw Tim Nolan's play, Stuck with Fred, in The Road Theatre Festival, and was blown away. The humanity in Nolan's play is riveting and humbling. The depth and vulnerability of the two main characters are both heartbreaking and refreshing. Stuck with Fred (the perfect title!) speaks to anyone who has had a much older friend, or a much younger friend, or any friend who understands and loves them in a way no one else can or ever will. This is a play that needs to be staged over and over.
